Carabelle Studio from Topflight Stamps

Hi bloggers, I'm here again...... and this week I've made a couple of tags to show you.

I've used a fabulous new stamp by Carabelle-Studio.

This stamp is a complete image and makes for a very quick card or tag.

 I inked up a piece of cardstock with some new inks called Izinks......they are BRIGHT!!

I then applied white paint through an Andy Skinner stencil, from PaperArtsy.

With the card cut in half, the stamp was inked with Versamark, then heat embossed....... one piece in white and the other in black. I stamped the butterfly part on separate inked card, cut them out and adhered to the tag.

 I was just curious how different the tags would look, although they were identical apart from the colour of embossing powder.

I'm still not sure which one I prefer 😀 what do you think??

Topflight Stamps have a massive selection of Carabelle Studio stamps, why not pop over to check them out?

Catch you soon, have a great weekend,

More Paperartsy at Topflight Stamps

Hi blog followers, it's Friday already and I'm back with my TOPFLIGHT STAMPS post for this week.

 I live in the UK, and we've already had Mother's Day, but I notice it's coming soon in the US.

Because of this, I've made a couple of feminine cards, which could be used for Mother's Day, or even a birthday.

I've used Jofy stamps again, from Paperartsy, (link at end)

 These are simple cards, but quite effective.

ALL CARDSTOCK IS FROM PAPERMILLDIRECT

I've used black smooth, and white Hopsack on these cards.

I stamped the large flower onto previously inked background, then cut it out. At this stage I added doodles, with a white pen. .....Using Distress Oxides and a blending brush, I lightly inked a small part  of white textured card stock, to give a very soft base for the vibrant flower. I splashed a bit of contrasting colour over the card, then adhered the flower to the background. 

I filled in parts of the image with Ranger 'Glossy Accents'.

The 'mum' was die-cut and adhered along with a small sentiment.

The whole 'topper' was mat onto black card, then a white card base of the same textured card. 

My usual few sequins and I was done.

Because I love this new stamp set, I made a second card whilst I had the stamps out, in a different colour.

I've also used a Jofy stencil on this one.....(the leaves are actually a pretty green colour, but look anemic in the pic 😕)

Well, as always, have a great weekend, with plenty of crafting if you get the chance.

Bye for now,

Barbara xx
